Front struts replaced what a difference... 900 1995

posted by  someone claiming to be Jim Donabed on  Sat Mar 23 16:07 CST 2002 [RELATED]

My 95 960 with 98,000+ miles had the front struts replaced.
Didn't know if they needed it or not (pretty lame huh) but the
suspension felt a bit squaky and loose.

Authorized dealer did the job and recommend changing the swing
and bushings too. This added a few hundred bucks to the job.

The difference in this car and my "old" car is amazing. Although
I purhcased this car "pre owned" I know what it was like when new.
My lesson is, don't always wait for something to break. Just
avoid trouble, bite the bullet, and make some repairs before
they become problems.

The car is much stable, smooth & quiet. Didn't know what I was
missing.
